The Shepheard’s Hotel, next door to the Semiramis Intercontinental on the Nile Corniche just south of Tahrir Square. Like the Semiramis, it was an historic 19th century palace hotel—Englishman Samuel Shepheard first opened lodgings on a nearby site in 1841. The famous landmark was destroyed in the anti-British fires of 1952 and replaced with by this larger modern riverfront block in 1957, which has been closed and stripped down under a very slow renovation that has been on-going since at least 2014.

Inter-war period art deco house in the “P&O Style”. An eccentric lived here for many years, but it now looks like the joint is being stripped out. Unlikely to survive. Earlwood.
